Question

Assuming complete dissociation, calculate the pH of the following solution:

0.002 M KOH

Numerical

Solution

\[\ce{KOH_{(aq)} ↔ K^+_{(aq)} + OH^-_{(aq)}}\]

`["OH"^-] =["KOH"]`

`=> ["OH"^-] = .002`

Now `"pOH" = - log["OH"^-]`

= 2.69

`therefore pH = 14 - 2.69`

= 11.31

Hence, the pH of the solution is 11.31
